โ€œIn 2002, I was standing on this stage, and MTV had given Paul Walker and I an award for Best Duo. And now, 15 years later, Iโ€™m with my whole family, and youโ€™re giving us the Generation Award,โ€ Vin told the crowd.

Before adding of his treasured friend Paul, who affectionately called Pablo: โ€œI could never stand on the stage and talk about Fast and Furious without giving love to my brother, Pablo, our brother Pablo, we hope you are proud, thank you so much.โ€

โ€œI could never stand on the stage and talk about Fast and Furious without giving love to my brother,โ€ Vin said during his acceptance speech.

Accio winner! Emma Watson still gets slammed after making history

Our favourite witch and real-life hero Emma Watson is continuing her plight for equality.

The 27-year-old picked up the popcorn bucket for the combined-gender Best Actor category for her role as Belle in Beauty and the Beast, aka the first ever gender-neutral accolade.

โ€œThe first acting award in history that doesnโ€™t separate nominees based on their sex says something about how we perceive the human experience,โ€ she said in her speech.

Hermione Granger just continues to cast her spell on us.

Adding, โ€œTo me, it indicates that acting is about the ability to put yourself in someone elseโ€™s shoes. And that doesnโ€™t need to be separated into two different categories.โ€

Her speech, which you can read in full here, had some viewers expressing unworthy shade, claiming it went for too long.

โ€œEmma Watson is giving this profound speech. Girl itโ€™s the #MTVAwards .. Not the Oscars. Sit down already,โ€ one person tweeted.

But not everyone was as harsh.

โ€œAm I the only one who actually enjoyed Emma Watsonโ€™s speech at the mtv movie awards? #MTVMovieAwards2017 #EmmaWatson,โ€ another person noted.

Being the brightest witch of our age is a tough gig.

We love Chrissyโ€™s bold lookโ€ฆ And it doesnโ€™t hurt having Milo on her arm.

The 36-year-old presented the Best Duo award with drum roll, her on-screen dad Jack, actor Milo Ventimiglia.

Taking us back to the โ€™70s, Milo stayed in character, telling the crowd, โ€œYou know, Princess, these MTV awards, they were a little different in my day.โ€

What could possibly stop such a fab momentโ€ฆ

The 48-year-old and his pint-sized co-star channelled their inner Wolverine as they accepted their popcorn statue.

โ€œThis is a character I love. I owe my career to this character,โ€ the 48-year-old beamed.
